Dear Students:
 
Hot Docs has offered a limited number of free tickets for the film below to students at the Asian Institute. If you’re interested, please respond to me to claim 1-4 tickets. I’ll give the tickets out on a first come first serve basis. I will need the first and last names of each person who you are requesting a ticket for. The tickets will be held at the box office under your name and can be picked up prior to the screening.
 
Best,
Katherine

Films Changing the World: UNTYING THE KNOT (Monday, June 17, 6:30 pm)
After Rumana Monzur was viciously attacked and blinded by her husband in her hometown of Dhaka, Bangladesh, she refused to give up. Untying the Knot follows her inspiring journey to Vancouver where she pursues a law degree at UBC and the stories of three other women struggling in similar situations. An exposé of abusive relationships and marriage in Bangladesh—and the courageous women standing up to the social codes that oppress them—this documentary is an empowering testament to their strength, resilience and relentless pursuit to change their fates on their own terms.
Followed by a conversation with film subject Rumana Monzur.
